Government had a chance tonight to support families that have faced crippling mortgage costs.

The situation at Nuremore Hotel in Co Monaghan is very concerning.
For several months I have tried to engage with the management and owner of the hotel - but the issues are now so unsettling that today I raised them in the Dáil.

Families of Children with Disabilities in Counties Monaghan & Cavan face discrimination when they seek respite services, because of the different criteria applied in different counties by the HSE.

🚨 A small win 🚨
After SF raised the issue last week of domestic customers being overcharged on their electricity bills (for a disgraceful scheme that forced families to subsidise big businesses) today we have confirmation that monies will be repaid.

RT @davidcullinane: The story in Extra.ie where it is alleged the state agreed a secret plan to block refunds of illegal nursing home charges is truly shocking. We need full transparency from the government and the full facts must be put in public domain immediately. @sinnfeinireland

Minister Ryan still defends the scheme 🤷‍♂️
